It's almost time.
In less than 1 month,
I'll be headed back to Rosebud Reservation
for the Annual Wacipi (Pow Wow) and Fair.
It's one of my favorite events of the year.
Nothing matches it for color, movement, sounds
and a glimpse into
a segment of our country that we rarely see.
Am I the only one who thinks this little one looks like a Kardashian?
These two dancers have long been some of my favorites -
I'm sure they have wonderful names;
but in my head when I see them
they're Screamin Eagle and Pine cone Man
OK, so not everyone is happy to be photographed.
When I asked his mom if it was OK to take his picture, she laughed and said "Good luck",
so I'm not taking it personally.

Grannies with purses,
pretty much the same in every culture!
Getting excited!
